I just tried my first tin of Astleys tobacco #99 Royal Tudor Full Latakia. This is the first Astleys tobacco I have tried and am very impressed. I have to admit smoking this blend reminds me most of Dunhill, somewhere in between London Mixture and Standard Mixture. But it is not exactly like Dunhill and is also most enjoyable and smooth. It is a very fine blend and have to admit that this could easily become my staple daily latakia blend. No bite, good flavor and burns nicely. Was very easy to light and keep lit. I have not finished the tin so I cannot expound too much. Excellent blend 31/2 to 4 stars.
